AlertsFebruary 7, 2025

2025 CalChamber Business Issues and Legislative Guide cover: Leading the Way to a More Prosperous California.

The California Chamber of Commerce 2025 Business Issues and Legislative Guide is available now on the CalChamber website at www.calchamber.com/businessissues.

The issues guide highlights how policy makers can be part of Leading the Way to a More Prosperous California. The easy-to-reference online publication offers sensible, workable ideas to move the state forward on the affordability issues that threaten progress on any prosperity agenda.

Those issues include the high costs of essentials, from housing to energy, as well as hidden taxes that penalize employers for investing, hiring or producing in California.

An e-book edition of the Guide, compatible with smartphones, tablets and desktop computers with an e-book reader installed can be downloaded free at www.calchamber.com/businessissues. A PDF file also is available.

In addition, issue articles can be viewed as web pages and downloaded as individual PDF files. All electronic files include clickable links to many of the sources cited in the issue articles.
